The Rosemary Clooney show, which aired between 1956-57, showcases the timeless talents of the classic "girl singer," endowed with her smooth voice and enduringly engaging personality. With many of her songs written by such greats as Cole Porter, the Gershwins, Lorenz Hart, and Richard Rogers, Rosemary is a classic performer who delivers warmth and honesty with every song. Accompanied by The Nelson Riddle Orchestra and with guest appearances from the Hi-Lows, Clooney delivers vintage performances in this original PBS special, peppered with interviews with Clooney's family, including, of course, George. This collection truly demonstrates how it was that Clooney captured the hearts of audiences over a career that spanned six decades; the repertoire includes the songs "Taking a Chance on Love," "Love and Marriage," "Blues in the Night," and "Moonlight in Vermont."
